Long story short I took apart my 71 Spider last year and only now getting round to putting the car back together. I made the mistake of not taking enough photos and I need some help with refitting the vacuum and emissions lines. From the looks of things this car has been rebuilt like 35 times already so I don't really trust some of the connections I found.
Does anyone have a vacuum diagram for such a car? I have only managed to find diagrams for later cars.
I've drawn up a diagram showing where I think all the vacuum connections go based on my fleeting memory and hose-shape-and-length forensics.

I've put letters near the things I want to reference. This is how I think it goes;
A = Fuel Inlet
B = Fuel outlet
C = Vent to air cleaner
D = Magic thing (bobina per electtrovalvola)
E = Brake booster
F = Magic thing (bobina per electtrovalvola)
G = Gasoline vapors filter
I did a search on the forums and someone said that the charcoal canister goes to the carb. But going off my hose forensics, this isn't possible. But then again, it could have just been wrong when I got the car.

Although I'm a FI guy, any chance of sourcing a single plane intake manifold? and a 32/36 carb? Might be an improvement in power.

Thats probably the smarter thing to do but I'm already over budget with this project and I just want to get some miles under my belt before I splash out on something juicer.
